Cataract Occurrence In Micropogonia Furnieri (Desmarest, 1822) In The Area Between Capes Frio And Torres (23° S And 29° S), Brazil : Investigation Of Causes And Electrophoretic Studies Of Total Proteins Of The Eye Lenses, Anna Emila A. De M. Vazzoler, Van Ngan Phan

Reports

The frequency and distribution of these specimens were analysed and the electrophoretic patterns of soluble eye-lens proteins were determined. This cataract is not of parasitic origin and was rare in specimens from the coastal area. In the lagunar region it occurs mainly in specimens of the River Baguacu from April to November.
